Calling an exe from another application and passing an argument to it .Net

Calling an exe from another application and passing an argument to it .Net
Calling an exe from another application is always easy in .net.
You need to just add System.diagnostics namespace to your project and choose the properties.
Properties
ProcessStartInfo 
Stores information about the process. 

FileName
The program or filename you want to run. It can be a file such as "example.txt". It can be a program such as "WINWORD.EXE".

Arguments 
Stores the arguments, such as -flags or filename.  

CreateNoWindow Allows you to run a command line program silently. It does not flash a console window.  

WindowStyle Use this to set windows as hidden.
ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden used often.  

UserName WorkingDirectory  
Domain These control OS-specific parameters.     
For more complex situations, where Windows features are used.   

Examples
using System.Diagnostics;  
class Program  
{ 
static void Main() 
{  
// Open the file "example.txt" that is in the same directory as 
// your .exe file you are running. 
// To call any other exe you need to just specify the path of the exe.  
Process.Start("example.txt");   
}   
}   

This example is to call an exe and pass the arguments.   
using System.Diagnostics; 
class Program 
{   
static void Main()  
{
// A. 
// Open specified Word file. 
OpenMicrosoftWord(@"C:\Users\Sam\Documents\Gears.docx");
}  

///  
/// Open specified word document.  
///    
static void OpenMicrosoftWord(string f)
{ 
ProcessStartInfo startInfo = new ProcessStartInfo(); 
startInfo.FileName = "WINWORD.EXE";  
startInfo.Arguments = f;  
Process.Start(startInfo);  
}
}

Study Abroad

Study Abroad for Grad Students
The National Science Foundation offers an opportunity for summer study abroad for graduate students in biological sciences, computer and information science and technology, STEM education, engineering, geosciences, math, plus social, behavioral or economic sciences. Apply by Dec. 12. See our calendar page for details.
Study Abroad is for Everybody!
Can you go abroad if you are in a technical major? If you don't speak any foreign languages? If you don't have a lot of extra money? Yes, you can!
Our office is dedicated to helping as many Purdue students as possible to have overseas experiences. We help you to overcome academic, financial, or personal concerns that might prevent you from going abroad and we're especially devoted to removing obstacles for first-time travelers. Begin your adventure today by exploring our searchable list of programs.
There will also be a series of Information Sessions for specific programs early this semester. For a list of scheduled information meetings, consult the Study Abroad calendar.
Passports required!
In the past, students could apply for Study Abroad, and then wait until finding out if they had been accepted before applying for a passport. This is no longer possible.
You now need to show the Study Abroad Office proof that you have a passport, or that you have applied for one, at the time you apply for one of our programs.
(* NOTE: This requirement is waived if you are applying for an International Programs In Agriculture [IPIA] program.)
Students who are even thinking of going abroad are strongly encouraged to apply for a passport as soon as possible!
